Wall Drug South Dakota is no doubt one of the most popular drug stores in the country, which is funny since it?s no longer a drug store but now a pharmacy museum and traveller?s museum all rolled into one great roadside attraction.
The South Dakota tourism boards are particularly proud of this establishment, with its rich and poignant history about a hardworking couple that single-handedly brought hope to Wall SD with their optimism and perseverance.
Wall Drug was once an empty drug store in a languishing and morbid town. Now, it?s an incredibly popular 76,000 museum that houses a wide variety of attractions, including an animated T-Rex, a Branding Iron arcade, and a panning-mining adventure to hunt for gemstones and fossils. And if you come at the right time, you?ll even enjoy a train station water show!
For hungry travelers, there?s also a pizza parlor, gourmet coffee shop, and a picnic area to enjoy the nearby Badlands scenery.
And the best thing of all is that the attraction is completely free to enjoy.
